Sometimes, yeah, if I can be absolutely certain it's something the person wants. I recently bought my husband a biography of J. Robert Oppenheimer I saw mentioned in another sub, and many gift-giving occasions involve me buying him books off his wish list. I bought a book for my best friend that Amazon advertised to me. I've bought my oldest kid books I've read that I think she will enjoy (spoiler: she basically never does).
